Amazon paperwhite11/1/2023 ![]() ![]() We’ve only been testing the Kindle Paperwhite for two weeks so haven’t put its claims of 10 weeks of battery life fully to the test. We also loved how the adjustable backlight works (something the old model lacks), and we think it’s definitely a bit easier on the eyes when you switch it to a warmer setting for reading at night. When it comes to the screen itself, this one is also brighter, with 17 LEDs rather than five in its front light, making it 10% brighter than its predecessor, according to Amazon. Yes, it’s a small difference but given the overall difference in dimensions, we did find it more unwieldy to use one-handed. The previous version weighed 182g and this one increases that to 205g. However, that size will be noticeable if you’ve got used to the way the 6-inch one felt to handle. The step up in size means this one is almost as big as the the 7-inch premium Kindle Oasis, so it’ll be great if you want to fit more text on the display and use larger font sizes. It has an uncomplicated design that isn’t too different to older versions of the device. ![]() ![]() Weight: 205 g Kindle Paperwhite review: Design and display Waterproofing: IPX8-rated to withstand immersion in two metres of water for up to an hourīattery life: Up to 10 weeks based on 30 minutes of reading a day We got our hands on the new model to put it to the test, and think it’s a great pick if you want a highly capable e-reader to rival the Kindle Oasis without stretching to that high-end model’s £200+ price tag. The new Paperwhite has a longer battery life, waterproofing, 32GB of storage (enough room for around 3,000 books), a 6.8-inch display (almost an inch bigger than its predecessor), and it finally added USB-C for charging too, meaning you can now get it back up to 100% full battery in 2.5 hours. ![]()
